How Come? Looks like mbmon touches the hardware directly... that's equivalent to loading two drivers for the same hardware at once. No suprise if they get in eachother's way. You could try to "rmmod" our modules including i2c before you run mbmon... but even then I can't vouch for whatever state in which that program leaves the hardware. Any error in lm sensors that you notice after running mbmon is out of our hands. > I was going to try to hack w83781d.c into something useable, but alas I > am too dumb.

I thought he might eventually submit a patch? In the meantime, let's try to get everything else working for you. To start with, make sure you have at least the 2.6.5 i2c & sensors packages.
